“Mr Manning Pollard.”
“Ziz, you’re crazy. He wasn’t there. I’ve seen him myself every day you’ve been gone.”
“Seen him! Seen Manning Pollard? Penny, you’re crazy!”
CHAPTER XVIII—The Luminous Face
“No, Zizi, my child, I’m not crazy. And, as a matter of fact, I suppose you’re not, either. Now, what do you mean by thinking you saw Pollard in New Hampshire when I know he was here in New York?”
“First, you tell me what you mean by thinking he was here in New York when I saw him in Coggs’ Hollow?”
“Saw him? and talked with him?”
“No; I didn’t see him to speak to—but I saw him.”
“Where was he?”
“Walking along the street.”
